In FFVIII, your actions in the present time slightly affect the past you see through dreams.
1. Deling City hotel
You can read the first issue of Timber Maniacs in Balamb, either in the inn or the Train Station. This affects the scene where Laguna meets Julia in her room in Deling City hotel. If you pick up the issue from the inn, Laguna will fall asleep due to having too much wine. Also, Selphie will not write an entry to the Sir Laguna’s page. If you pick up the one from the station or none of them, Kiros makes a remark about Laguna not being able to handle alcohol. In Julia’s room, Laguna will talk a lot, then stops and feels embarrassed about it. Selphie will write an entry about Laguna’s alcohol-related article being rejected.
2. Vienne Mountains
If you read the 9th issue of Timber Maniacs, Ward will not appear in the flashback in Vienne Mountains (the one where a movie is being shot).
3. Lunatic Pandora Laboratory
During the torture scene in the prison, you can choose one of the following reactions for Squall (this affects what happens to the Moomba in the lab):
“…Just let me die” = the Moomba seemingly falls off the ledge but is saved by a safety rope
“I’ll lie…I must…live” = Laguna saves the Moomba before he falls down
